2014-11-20	pc, pc64: preserve last KB of conventional memory (might contain bios tables)	cinap_lenrek
	we add new function convmemsize() that returns the size of usable conventional memory that does some sanity checking and reserves the last KB below the top of memory pointer. this avoids lowraminit() overriding potential bios tables and sigsearch() going off the rails looking for tables at above 640K.
2014-11-15	pc: get rid of fixed 8MB memory map (now dynamically between 4 to 16 MB ↵	cinap_lenrek
	depending on kernel size) we now do mapping of KZERO to ROUND(end, 4*MB) where end needs not to be above 16MB. this allows for bigger kernels.
2014-11-02	pc, pc64: more sanity checking for lowraminit()	cinap_lenrek

2014-10-12	pc: sanity check bda value in lowraminit() to avoid overflow with efi	cinap_lenrek

2013-09-16	e820: handle duplicate and overlapping e820 entries, handle overflows	cinap_lenrek
	new algorithm: sort entries by top address first. then for each entry we use: base = max(base, last) so we'll never map the same addresses twice.
2012-08-24	add unified sigsearch() function to look for bios data structures	cinap_lenrek
	replace the various functions that searched for bios data structures by a single sigsearch() one in pc/memory.c that will probe the various bios data areas. also, a new checksum() function was added that is to be used to validate the structures found.
